Progress

Well the script is done (the five pages needed for the contest anyhow) and it ended up being a little more involved than originally thought.

There's definitely a trick to being able to tell a story with only pictures (which you have to imagine) and people talking to each other. Just working out the order in which people should speak so speech bubbles can line up on the page is a challenge. It has been a learning experience though. From concept to plot details to structure (how to make a story fit on exactly 22 pages) and then to dialogue.. all the while retaining the original concept.

A five page concept document is all that's left to do before Friday night. I've got more than five pages of just notes so the next step will be as much and organizing activity as a writing exercise. Either way it still remains well within the realms of 'doable'.
